What the press says about TheSite.org 

"TheSite.org on mobile could be looked upon as a mini bible for today's citizens, offering tips and guidance to people on love, life and work. TheSite.org doesn't talk down to you and keeps things nice and simple, which is particularly good when youre sneaking a look in those few spare minutes on the bus, or in the bedroom"
What Mobile

"I say good luck to two charities, Citizens Advice and TheSite.org, that are planning to send financial advice to the under-25s via podcasts and text messages. What they are trying to do - reverse the tide of financial ignorance and profligacy is commendable"
Tom Stevenson, Investment columnist for the Daily Telegraph

"TheSite, run by the well-respected charity YouthNet UK and aimed at 16-to 25 year olds, is refreshingly non-preachy... Unlike the average teenager's room, the mine of information here is neatly organised and easily accessible from drop-down menus along the top of the screen or a right-hand panel...
TheSite also understands the effectiveness of interaction, and an excellent community section features young diarists, including a first-year student and single dad, vox pops and moderated message boards. Troubled teens have the option of anonymously posting questions for experts on the site, rather than initiating an excruciating American Pie-style chat with a parent."
The Sunday Times

"We love TheSite.org. We like their attitude, we like their sense of humour... Grab yourself some clued-up sensible advice..."
Breathe.com

"...if you need help you can access it straight away on TheSite.org..."
Daily Telegraph

"TheSite's campaigns constantly surprise and push the medium to the max."
New Media Age

"It (TheSite.org) had good information and advice and dealt with subjects other than acne and sex. The rants were brilliant, written by older teenagers, really sarcastic and telling it like it is."
Sunday Times

"TheSite.org is an excellent site with user-friendly advice, information and discussion boards..."
The Times
